I like things that don't have darned monthly fees and this is something that has caught my attention.
I've had slingbox since v1. Also did a lot of beta testing for them back when I was on a Palm Treo phone. I've also used it from all around the world even in Beijing. I've never had any issues and even over hotel WiFi but if they have an ethernet plug I plug in. In the past few years with the advent of HDMI TVs in hotels I carry an HDMI cable and connect my MacBook Air to the TV and can watch on a regular TV. Worth every penny.
